Regional and Global Dimensions of Danish Film Culture and Film Policy

1 Citationer (Scopus)

Abstract

In Denmark, film policy before 1990 was to a much larger degree defined by traditional notions of national culture, and by rather defensive cultural strategies. Before 1987, Danish cinema and Danish film policy were not very internationally oriented, and apart from strategies for festival participation, the international policy was not very clearly profiled. This development has a background in strategies in the Danish film and television industry toward greater internationalization. In the presentation of the new four-year film agreement, the Ministry of Culture indicated that globalization should be developed as an even more active strategy for Danish film. Lars von Trier was from the very start of his career a Danish director with a strong European dimension, making films in English. The present Danish success and transnational outlook are certainly not repeated in all European countries and in general the transnational distribution of European films remains overly weak.
